the obama administration. this is an ongoing war too. debates about foreign policy are a vital part of our democracy. and i don't know why the media is rushing to criticize mitt romney for criticizing a foreign policy when they did not do that to barack obama or john kerry when they exercised their right to criticize republican foreign policy. >> two quick things. one is, it's apples and oranges. that's just not a fair comparison. a fairer comparison would be what democrats did directly after 9/11. you know, on the 12th, you had statements by people like hillary clinton who at that time was then senator clinton and seen as a very partisan figure, who said we stand united behind the president. that's a leadership -- that's what leaders are supposed to do. the other part of this, which is now disturbing, is it's okay to sort of say that mistakes were made. you know, as people work in this industry, you know, we sort of have a responsibility to be care takers of this industry. when we just follow, you know, our p
